-Arrive with your hair completely dry. Your style will not hold on wet or damp hair. If we need to blowdry your own hair. We will spend more time drying and less time creating a style you love! It could also make us run late and we don't want that...​

-Having a clean scalp free of product and oil build up is important. A style will not hold on dirty hair. You know your hair best. For most,  "clean" hair can be achieved by washing the night before or morning of the wedding.

-When washing I recommend doing a good shampoo (2x do a good scrub to really clean the scalp, make sure you get underneath and over the ears too!) You can condition your ends but try to avoid the roots and rinse well.  PLEASE avoid using hotel room toiletries. Blow-dry as smooth as you can with a paddle or round brush with your regular styling products.

-If you have naturally curly hair and want to wear your curls in your style pay attention to the day after washing that your curls look their best and try to coordinate with the wedding day. Use your regular styling products and we can touch up any unruly hairs to mimic your natural curl pattern.

- If you have naturally curly hair and want a sleek, smooth or straighter looking style then you need to blowout as smooth as possible prior to your appointment.

-Part your hair where you think you’d most likely want to style for the wedding day. Once your hair dries in a certain part it's rough to switch it.

-Blow-dry your hair with intention—use a brush to smooth and direct it, adding light volume with a round brush, and avoid rough, chaotic drying where the hair is whipping around.

-Try to leave it down to avoid creases or flatness from a ponytail.
